Mousasi was also successful in his 205-pound outing against
up-and-comer Ovince St.
Preux ($17,000). Though Mousasi’s experience ultimately proved
too much for the former University of Tennessee linebacker, St.
Preux gave a good account of himself in a unanimous decision
loss.

Broadcast on premium cable network Showtime, the evening’s main
card also featured the return of women’s 145-pound champion
Cristiane
Santos, who took home a total of $66,000 for her 16-second
knockout of overmatched challenger Hiroko
Yamanaka ($8,000).

Rounding out the televised card was a three-round lightweight
affair between K.J. Noons and
Billy
Evangelista. Noons walked with $65,000 and a unanimous decision
victory, while Evangelista was awarded $20,000 in defeat.
